A control method for auxiliary oil return of a multi-split air conditioning system is used for controlling an auxiliary oil return device of the multi-split air conditioning system, and comprises the following steps:
s100, starting an air conditioning system, setting an air conditioning mode, identifying the capacity of an internal unit, and determining a starting mode of a compressor according to the capacity of the internal unit;
the compressor opening mode includes:
the first opening mode: turning on the first compressor 110;
the second opening mode: sequentially starting the first compressor 110 and the second compressor 120;
recognizing the capacity code of each internal unit through a control device of an external unit of the air conditioning system;
when the starting capacity of the internal machine is less than or equal to 50 percent, a first starting mode is implemented;
when the starting capacity of the internal machine is larger than 50%, the second starting mode is implemented.
Each indoor unit connected with the outdoor unit in the multi-split air-conditioning system has an independent capacity code (for example, 22 indoor units represent 2.2 kW), the outdoor unit main control board can recognize the capacity code, and when one or more indoor units are started, the outdoor unit main control board can automatically recognize the capacity code of the indoor unit and calculate the starting capacity of the indoor unit.
The air conditioning mode includes: a cooling mode and a heating mode;
s200, in the first opening mode, the opening modes of the first expansion valve 212 and the second expansion valve 222 are default modes;
s210, in a refrigeration mode:
s211, when Tci1 is less than Tai-alpha 1 When the first preset time is continued, the first expansion valve and the second expansion valve are switched to an adjusting mode from a default mode;
wherein the content of the first and second substances,
tci 1-oil return temperature;
tai-inner loop temperature;
α 1 -a first target oil return temperature difference.
The oil return temperature is detected by an oil temperature bulb on the oil return branch, and the inner ring temperature is detected by an inner ring temperature sensor. The temperature of the inner ring directly influences the evaporation temperature of the evaporator, the higher the temperature of the inner ring is, the higher the evaporation temperature is, the higher the air suction temperature is, the lower the evaporation temperature is, the lower the air suction temperature is, the higher the oil return temperature is, and the lower the air suction temperature is. Therefore, the oil quantity on the oil return branch can be judged according to the difference value between the oil return temperature and the inner ring temperature. Is provided withA target oil return temperature difference alpha 1 If the inner ring temperature Tai-the oil return temperature Tci is more than alpha 1 The oil return quantity on the oil return branch is small. Wherein, tai is the inner ring temperature; tci is the oil return temperature.
And an electronic expansion valve on the oil return branch is opened (gradually increased from 60 pls), and the oil return branch starts to return oil.
The first expansion valve 212 and the second expansion valve 222 have opening degree formulas:
Y(ΔT)=α 1 +(0.1℃)X………………(1)
y (Delta T) represents the difference between the actually measured inner ring temperature Tai and the oil return temperature Tci, and alpha 1 And the target oil return temperature difference inner ring temperature Tai-oil return temperature Tci is represented, x represents the step number of the electronic expansion valve adjustment, and the minimum opening degree of the single adjustment is 1pls.
The formula (1) is a proportional relation for controlling the opening of the electronic expansion valve by actually measuring the difference between the oil return temperature difference and the target oil return temperature difference after the electronic expansion valve enters the adjusting mode. The larger the temperature difference is, the larger the number of steps for opening the electronic expansion valve is.
α 1 The target oil return temperature difference is represented, and the determination method is to determine the difference value between the inner ring temperature Tai and the oil return temperature Tci as a target value. Alpha at 10 ℃ < alpha 1 <20℃,α 1 The value range is obtained according to actual test experience, and the value is finally an optimal value.
S212, when Tci1 is more than or equal to Tai-beta for the first preset time, the first expansion valve 212 and the second expansion valve 222 exit the adjusting mode and are switched to a default mode;
wherein, the beta-oil return temperature difference;
beta is more than 0 ℃ and less than or equal to 5 ℃, and the value range of the beta is obtained according to actual test experience, and the value is finally an optimal value.
If the oil return temperature difference is less than or equal to beta and lasts 120s, the lubricating oil quantity on the oil return branch is sufficient, the mixed refrigerant quantity is small, the requirement of the unit can be met, the electronic expansion valve enters a default mode, and the opening degree is maintained at 60pls.
S220, in the heating mode:
s221, when Tci1 is less than Tai-alpha 1 When the second preset time is continued, the first expansion valve and the second expansion valve are switched to an adjusting mode from a default mode;
theoretical analysis and refrigeration, wherein the second preset time for the heating to continue is 60s, the first preset time for the refrigeration to continue is 120s, and considering that the temperature of a heating outer ring is relatively low, the frequency of the compressor can be increased, more oil can be discharged, the oil shortage risk is higher than that of a refrigeration mode, and therefore the adjustment mode is entered in advance for the duration of 60 s.
The compressor comprises a starting control phase and a normal control phase;
in the start-up control stage of the compressor, the opening degrees of the first expansion valve 211 and the second expansion valve 221 are 480pls;
under the bad working condition of the outer ring, the flow rate of the refrigerant is low, if the compressor is started instantly, oil is discharged more, oil return is slow, the oil quantity of lubricating oil of the compressor is insufficient, and the electronic expansion valve needs to be opened to the maximum opening degree to supplement oil return until the compressor is stopped.
The compressor carries out step S221 in the normal control phase.
The opening degree regulating formula of the electronic expansion valve is as follows:
Y(ΔT)=α 2 and (0.05 ℃) X, Y (delta T) represents the difference value of the actually measured inner ring temperature Tai-oil return temperature Tci, alpha represents the target oil return temperature difference inner ring temperature Tai-oil return temperature Tci, X represents the number of steps of the electronic expansion valve adjustment, and the minimum opening degree of the single adjustment is 2pls.
Because the heating working condition is lower than the outer ring of the refrigeration working condition, the flow velocity of the refrigerant is low, the adjustment coefficient of the electronic expansion valve is reduced, the number of steps needing to be opened for heating by the same oil return temperature difference is 2 times of that of refrigeration, and the minimum opening degree is adjusted to be 2pls once, so that the oil return is increased.
S222, when Tci1 is larger than or equal to Tai-beta for the first preset time, the first expansion valve and the second expansion valve are switched to a default mode;
if the oil return temperature difference is less than or equal to beta and lasts 120s, the lubricating oil quantity on the oil return branch is sufficient, the mixed refrigerant quantity is small, the requirement of the unit can be met, the electronic expansion valve enters a default mode, and the opening degree is maintained at 60pls.
S300, in a second opening mode, the method comprises the following steps:
s310, starting the first compressor 110, and adjusting the opening degree of the expansion valve according to the control method of the step S200;
s320, after a third preset time, starting the second compressor 120, and detecting oil return temperatures Tci1 and Tci2 through the first temperature sensor 212 and the second temperature sensor 222, wherein the opening degree adjustment formulas of the first expansion valve 211 and the second expansion valve 221 are as follows:
Y(ΔT)=α 2 +(0.2℃)X………………(2)
wherein alpha is 2 A second target oil return temperature difference; y (DeltaT) represents the measured oil return temperature Tci1 or Tci2, alpha 2 Representing the target value Tci1-Tci 2/2, x represents the number of steps of the adjustment of the electronic expansion valve, the minimum opening of a single adjustment being 1pls.
The third preset time is 2.5 minutes to 3.5 minutes, and preferably 3 minutes. The electronic expansion valve was adjusted to steady state within 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, the second compressor 120 is started, and the first temperature sensor 212 and the second temperature sensor 222 detect the oil return temperatures Tci1 and Tci2, and at this time, the adjustment formula of the opening degrees of the first expansion valve 211 and the second expansion valve 221 is formula (2).
The system calculates the difference between the oil return temperatures Tci1 and Tci2, takes | Tci1-Tci2 | 2 as a target value, the opening degrees of the first expansion valve 211 and the second expansion valve 221 are controlled around the target value, if the actually measured oil return temperature is larger than the target value, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is reduced, and if the actually measured oil return temperature is smaller than the target value, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is increased.
S400, in a refrigerating mode and a heating mode, when Tci1 is larger than or equal to Tai-beta and lasts for the first preset time, the first expansion valve 211 and the second expansion valve 221 exit from the adjusting mode and are switched to a default mode.
When the starting capacity of the internal machine is more than 50%, the first compressor 110 is started first, and then the second compressor 120 is started, so that the damage to the cylinder body of the compressor caused by instantaneous oil return shortage due to simultaneous starting of the compressors is prevented. And one compressor is started first, and after the oil return is stable, the second compressor is started again, so that the oil return has a certain buffering effect. And meanwhile, the opening degrees of the electronic expansion valves 1 and 2 are equalized by taking the Tci1-Tci2 |/2 as a target value, and the oil return amounts of the presses 1 and 2 are also equalized.
Specifically, the control method described above is explained by the following examples.
In the refrigeration mode, the unit is powered on and started, and the electronic expansion valve of the oil return branch enters the default mode opening degree of 60pls. Setting a target oil return temperature difference alpha 1 =10 ℃, and the oil return temperature difference β =5 ℃ when the device is out of the adjusting mode.
1. The system detects that the oil return temperature =5 ℃ and the inner ring temperature =20 ℃. The system automatically judges:
(1) The oil return temperature =5 ℃ and the inner ring temperature =20 ℃ to 10 ℃ and the operation is continued for more than 120 s;
the electronic expansion valve enters an adjusting mode according to Y (delta T) = alpha 1 Adjusting the opening degree by X at 0.1 deg.C:
measured return oil temperature difference Y (Δ T): if 15 ℃ =10 ℃ +0.1 ℃x50 pls, the electronic expansion valve needs to be opened by 50pls, and then is actually opened by 110pls.
2. The system detects that the oil return temperature =15 ℃ and the inner ring temperature =20 ℃, and the system automatically judges:
(1) The oil return temperature =15 ℃ or more and the inner ring temperature = 20-5 ℃ for continuously running for more than 120 s;
the electronic expansion valve EEV exits the regulation mode and reenters the default mode, and the opening degree returns to 60pls.
